In this candid episode of The Nurses’ Breakroom with Jenny Lytle, RN, Jenny opens up about a recent decision-making dilemma that led her to turn down a “perfect on paper” job opportunity. What stopped her? A lack of peace.

Jenny shares how honoring her intuition (or what she calls divine guidance) helped her avoid burnout and stay aligned with what truly matters—flexibility, purpose, and protecting her peace. Whether you're a nurse, caregiver, or just someone navigating change, this episode reminds you that your gut feeling is valid—and essential.

Why It Matters:
Burnout can start with ignoring those quiet internal nudges. Choosing peace over pressure is a powerful form of self-care.

Key Takeaways & Action Steps:
✔️ Pay attention to your intuition—especially when peace is missing
✔️ Just because something looks right doesn’t mean it is right
✔️ Self-care includes making choices that align with your current season
✔️ Flexibility and rest may matter more than prestige or structure
✔️ Ask for guidance and wait for clarity—it will come

Perfect for:
Nurses, caregivers, busy women, and anyone standing at a crossroads and craving clarity.

In this unscripted and raw episode recorded during my annual girls’ getaway, I share what it looks like when even the self-care coach feels out of alignment.
From a cozy cabin near St. Louis, I reflect on the signs of burnout creeping back in—and how I’m using my own BECOMING Method® to realign with what matters most.

This is your reminder that healing isn’t linear. And self-care isn’t a box to check—it’s a way of life that evolves with you.

Takeaways + Action Steps:

• Reflect on what “off track” feels like for you.
• Revisit the Wheel of Life to assess your current state.
• Use Morning Pages or free-writing to clear your mind.
• Start (or restart) the BECOMING Method—because yes, it works.
• Give yourself permission to pause and reset, without guilt.
